What is it exactly? Flow App Engine, based on Jelastic software, is a multi-regional Swiss-based Platform-as-a-Service operated by innofield AG, with data centers in Zurich (ZRH1) and Attinghausen (ALP1).

Who is it for? It’s ideal for Developers, Software Agencies and SaaS Vendors. It’s perfectly suited for those wanting to focus on software development instead of time-consuming infrastructure tasks. SysAdmin related skills are not necessary.

Why use it? Because it’s so simple, it’s possible to set up a production-ready Cloud Environment with just a few clicks. Thanks to the intuitive Management-Dashboard, the complex task of self infrastructure maintenance belongs to the past.

Every application deserves fast, all-SSD-based hosting.

Easy Deployment

Any application can be easily deployed using GIT, SVN, archive or plugins like Maven, Eclipse, IDEA and NetBeans. Since there are no proprietary APIs to code, new and legacy applications are supported without any changes.

Marketplace

At Marketplace you can install popular applications such as content management systems (WordPress, Joomla, Magnolia), wikis, online-shops, project management tools and more, with one-click.

Auto-Scaling

In terms of scaling, Flow App Engine powered by Jelastic is unique. It supports automatic-horizontal and even automatic-vertical scalability.

No Lock-in

Since there are no proprietary APIs to code and features like environment export/import, there is absolutely no Vendor Lock-in with us. Thanks to the “Pay as you go” billing model, there is no minimum contract period.

SSH Access

In addition to the easy management via a simple GUI, secure SSH access to all your containers is available for more complex configurations and management.

API

Using the REST API, you can programmatically create environments, deploy apps, automate a set of actions and perform many other tasks.

Smart pricing

Choose your pricing model.

You have a choice between a dynamic, cost-efficient model (usage-based) and a traditional model with fix pricing (fixed). Chargeable resources are RAM & CPU. They are measured hourly in a computing-resource unit called a Cloudlet.

Usage-based

Type: dynamic + efficient

With this model, the price is variable as you pay only for what you really use. For instance, during the day there is high load of your application (you pay more) and at night there is low load (you pay less).

Fixed

Type: traditional (VPS like)

With this model, you pay a fixed price. You always pay for the configured (reserved) number of Cloudlets, even if you use fewer resources. For instance, you pay 0.14 CHF/hour what is equal to 99 CHF/month.
